Early life [ edit ]
Michael Babatunde Adeyinka was born on May 10, 1989,[3] [4] and raised in South Brooklyn .[5] His dream began after DJing his local church's Christmas parties as a teen. This eventually grew into paid gigs DJing church members’ events such as birthday parties and weddings.[6] [citation needed ]
His African community in South Brooklyn began to take a fancy to his ability to play music with an afrobeats and dancehall-inspired atmosphere; the attention encouraged him to throw parties around the city.[citation needed ]
In 2016, DJ Tunez collaborated with Wande Coal to release ‘Iskaba’, which was listed in Okayafrica 's Best Songs of 2017 .[7]
A Black Friday “Blackout” party from DJ Tunez[8] brought about 1,700 people to Queens ’ Amazura Concert Hall in November 2019.[9]
Featured as a guest panelist at a business forum held at Columbia University in 2019, Adeyinka joined other leaders in the music industry to discuss the business of art and literature on the African continent . The panel was moderated by special guest design and technology executive Olufeko .[10]
